Multilayered, hollow plastic articles and method for making same are disclosed. The articles have a base portion, integral side walls and an integral open neck or rim portion. The articles also have an inner first layer of thermoplastic material and an outer second layer of pressure molded, thermoplastic material, wherein the inner layer includes a heat absorbing and/or dissipating base portion.

What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A multilayered, hollow plastic article having a base portion, integral side walls, and an integral open neck or rim portion, said article having an inner first layer of thermoplastic material, and an outer second layer of pressure molded, thermoplastic material, wherein the base portion of the inner first layer is thickened by including a separate and dissimilar member which is a heat absorbing or dissipating member adhered to the base of the inner first layer. 
     
     
       2. An article according to claim 1 wherein said member is selected from the group consisting of aluminum or aluminum base alloys, polycarbonates, polyesters, nylon and teflon. 
     
     
       3. An article according to claim 1 wherein said article is a multilayered, hollow plastic container exhibiting the characteristics of blow orientation. 
     
     
       4. An article according to claim 1 wherein said inner and outer layers are seamless. 
     
     
       5. An article according to claim 1 wherein said inner and outer layers are adhered one to the other substantially over their entire contacting areas.
